Thousands of women & girls are helped by us each year

With your help, we can do more

An estimated 2 million women and girls in Africa are suﬀering from obstetric ﬁstula caused by prolonged, obstructed childbirth and lack of access to maternity care. Left incontinent, they are often condemned to a life of solitude and despair.

Our charity helps these women and girls by providing free surgeries to heal their ﬁstulas and free maternity care to prevent ﬁstulas and ensure safe childbirth. We also train local healthcare workers.

Women’s health is fundamental to women’s rights and societal roles in Africa and eﬀective medical care to remedy and prevent obstetric ﬁstula is essential to achieving those rights and roles for women.
